I've been wanting to make a pole-lathe. Does anyone have a link to some good plans? Cheers, Steve

Hi Steve, i followed instructions on how to build my lathe in Mike Abbots book "Green woodworking: Working with wood the natural way" the book costs about £30 quid with it being out of print but if you dig deep enough on the internet i'm sure you'll find some decent plans online. Cheers and good luck building!

I had a rather large piece of Beech and after watching a video of Robin Wood turning a nest of bowls i just had to have a go! I only aimed to get two bowls out of the wood and by some miracle and several hours of work i came out with my first nest, i'm well chuffed but think that i will stick to making single bowls for now.....:001_smile:
